Reviews of Smart Appart – Gare Du Midi

  • Rachel from United States of America (8/10)

    Very beautiful and clean apartment. It is very spacious and had lots of room for my big family. There were lots of amenities provided. Checking in and out was easy. Staff was very attentive before check it to make sure it was easy. Close to train station

  • Hasan from Italy (8/10)

    Wide and comfortable living room

  • Francesco from Austria (8/10)

    Very clean and perfect location next to Gare du Midi: very practical!

    I also really liked the spacious and modern bathroom.

  • Marko from Serbia (8/10)

    The apartment is very close to Brussels Midi Station (train), where is also starting point for transfer to Charleroi Airport, so the location was very appropriate. From Grand-Place is maybe 20 minutes on foot, normal walking. We used the public transport only for Atomium (even European Parliament is reachable). In the vicinity very affordable restaurant with great food (Lunch Factory), and couple of bars. Carrefour Express and Delhaize Shop&Go available within the Midi station. Towels were provided, as well as the complimentary coffee (for every day of our staying two pods). Wi-Fi works well. The host was very responsive and helpful.

  • Abayomi from Germany (7/10)

    The property fitted the description on the site.

  • Maida from Germany (9/10)

    It was a dream come true for a true Harry Potter fan like myself, because we stayed at the apartment dedicated to this franchise. The owner thought of every little detail, starting from the "password" to enter through the door, all the way to the "passage through the platform 9 3/4" as well as the exclusive entrance for the Ministry of Magic through the toilet itself 👍🏼😂 I really enjoyed being a part of the beloved world, which came as a total surprise to us!
    The location was great; a 5-minute walk from the "The Halle Gate" and a 8-minute walk to the central station.

  • Sabadis from Romania (8/10)

    closeness to the station was great!
    walkable to the city center, too!

  • Arnab from India (8/10)

    Location was excellent. Room was very nice and clean.

  • Desiree from Germany (9/10)

    Kitchen equipped with everything you need for a short stay. Bathroom with storage space. TV with streaming services to login.

  • Joseph from Australia (8/10)

    Neat and clean.
